Oral and Dental Health Status in Patients Suffering From Chronic Kidney Disease

Sponsor: University Hospital, Bordeaux

Summary

A large panel of oral and dental diseases exist in patients suffering from chronic kidney disease (CKD) in end-stage renal disease: it concerns teeth, peridontium, alveolar bone and saliva and it has been already described in the literature. The consequences of oral diseases in systemic health are substantial, including increase of inflammatory parameters, alteration of nutrition and increase of cardiovascular risk factors. It has been shown before that several oral diseases can be considered as cardiovascular risk factor in the general population and in diabetic patients through the chronic inflammatory pathway. In CKD patients, the influence of oral diseases on the progression of the chronic kidney disease is not yet established, as most of the studies are focused on stage 5 CKD or dialysis patients. That's why the interactions between dental health and CKD will be evaluated in this population of patients, at different stages of the disease (stages 2 to 5). The main objective will be to describe the oral diseases at each stage of CKD. Secondary objectives will be: (1) To evaluate the link between the oral health and the chronic kidney disease stage, the nutritional and inflammatory status; (2) Among patients needing dental treatments, to evaluate after 6 months and 12 months whether dental cares have an influence on nutrition parameters, inflammatory status and CKD; (3) to evaluate the completion of dental treatments after the dental consultation including advises on dental health.
